Summary

An overview of contamination control and materials for the James Webb Space Telescope, the infrared observatory then due to launch in 2021. Because even small amounts of contamination can degrade its four science instruments and shorten the mission, contamination control has shaped the observatory since its conception.

Summary written by the openQCM team. The original abstract is on the publisher’s page.
